Volunteer

Did you know that all Jesus followers have been gifted with skills and abilities by the Holy Spirit to serve and bless others?! At Southwest we believe that not only do we bless other people when we serve them, but that we also grow in our own faith and discipleship when we serve!
There are so many places to serve at Southwest, and we want to help you find your place! Some areas to serve in include Guest Services, Student Ministry, Kids Ministry, Media Team, and even the Band! Take a look further down the page for how you can get plugged in to volunteering at Southwest.
